Show your Breitling

Oldie

[geordie]

I'd certainly advise against sensing it to Breitling as, if they've not seen it for a while, they will insist that they can only change the battery as part of a full service.

I've got a set of Breitling back removal tools if required!

Aerospace (or certainly my Avantage model) just needs a small screwdriver

[njr911]

I would but I've heard some nasty stories about frying the movement. Also the last battery only lasted a couple of years so the movement might need a bit of a service.

Don't worry though, it's not going to Breitling but to a very helpful, local TZ forumite :)

Chronospace.

& SuperOcean 44.

Miss this one, was a great one watch other than the WR, but didn’t fit well into a rotation with the fiddly date. First world problem!

I`ve got one of those.
I bought it new in 2004.

In fact i`m wearing it now, it`s my `watch of the week`.
I never bother with setting the correct date on any watch..

The brand that got my into watches, I love a Breitling.

This is just so beautiful!

A bit of an oldie from me.

Had a few in my time, only this one at the moment.



Always fancied a gold version of this but can’t justify the cost.

Prezzie from Wifey 19 years ago.

Still looking good on the fighter as well as the blue calf.

This one I shouldn’t have let go!

Seawolf 45mm



Navitimer B01 46mm

Enjoy the rest of the weekend people,

Another oldie, my first “proper “ watch , bought around 1991 , don’t think I’ll ever let it go.

Just took a punt on this. Not really done the whole blacksteel thing before, but looks very cool on the wrist (at least I think so!)

Really like those. I keep looking at the 42mm version.

Edit: what sort of discount can you achieve on a Breitling?

They really are great IMO.

On these I’d be aiming for 20% I think. I managed just under 25% but my friend knew the AD I purchased from personally.

Trying to capture the dial adn bezel colour on this is difficult

I think they have a pre-owned unworn 42mm of this in Copes Jewellers in Nottingham.
At least, they did on Saturday as I tried it on. They had not put it out in the window yet as just arrived, so don’t know about price.

I managed just over 20% on the Superocean I bought on Saturday. It was new - not sure if you would see the same on pre owned but give them a call. They are nice enough.

They're underrated if you ask me, especially if you're paying used prices. Here's mine

[TaketheCannoli]

Mine (pictured in previous posts) is returning a loss of 4 seconds over seven days. I normally accept 4 spd as outstanding performance! So as you say, outstanding watches and amazing value used.

Thats unbelievable, If I remember rightly I paid about 1400 quid for this when it was a year and a bit old. Blows my mind that its about 1/7th of what a sub trades at today

[TaketheCannoli]

I know, insane isn't it.

Wits - that's still the best looking yellow dial watch ever!

[Middo]

Some of the new models are fantastic. The classic chrono’s are particularly nice.

[Aimforthebushes]

Considering an Avenger or Seawolf on rubber for my next piece. Hard pressed to decide between the Breitlings and a Seamaster on rubber.

[TaketheCannoli]

Lovely dial…

[snowman]

After me falling out of love with the Breitling I’ve now found my passion for them again. Can’t seem to find a show thread so I’d thought I would try and ignite everyone’s passion again.

Thank you for going through all that trouble. Do you feel better now?

Good :)

It was easy enough, seems you really didn't try at all...
